am a certified high school science teacher with over ten years of classroom experience teaching Biology, Chemistry, and related sciences. I hold a Bachelor of Science in Biology from Indiana University Bloomington and a Master’s in Education from Xavier University. My professional background also includes curriculum design and instructional technology, which I use to create clear, engaging lessons that help students truly understand the material rather than rely on memorization.
In addition to science, I regularly support students in mathematics, particularly in algebra, geometry, and foundational math skills that are essential for success in high school science courses. Over the years, I have worked with students in grades 6–12, both in the classroom and in one-on-one tutoring settings. I have helped middle schoolers build strong foundations, guided high school students through honors and AP coursework, and supported students preparing for standardized tests. Parents often comment on my ability to explain complex concepts in simple, relatable ways, while students appreciate my patience, encouragement, and ability to connect the subject matter to real-world examples.
My tutoring approach focuses on building both skills and confidence. I use questioning techniques to identify gaps in understanding, then guide students through problem-solving strategies that they can apply independently. Whether it’s working through stoichiometry in chemistry, understanding cellular processes in biology, or tackling challenging math problems, I help students develop the tools they need to feel successful. My goal is not only to improve grades but also to foster a deeper understanding and a positive mindset toward learning.
